Not Forgetting The Whale is a 2015 dystopian novel by John Ironmonger. Joe Haak, a young mathematician who worked for an investment banking company, is one day found naked at the shore of the quaint coastal town of St. Piran. Its citizens save him and quickly include him into the community, as Joe doesn't seem to be too keen to leave. It is later told that Joe is a mathematician working as an analyst for a short trader department, where he programmed his prediction software, Cassie. Once his software predicts the imminent end of the world due to an oil crisis and a new flu strain, he starts hoarding food, not only for himself but for the entire village that so openly invited him to their midst, to survive the upcoming disaster.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); }) | |

Animal Metaphor: The Whale. Whales are often associated with Life and Death, and the whale of the story shows both possible outcomes of an unexpected situation. The first time it strands and is helpless, it is saved; The second time, it dies. | |
